.svg to .eps bad conversion

[Binome]

Hi,
I'm using the following command 'convert file.svg file.eps' to convert an svg image to an eps one. The svg contains shaded color boxes and the conversion gives black boxes.
I'm on Kubuntu 9.10.
Does someone know what I can do?
Thank you.

Post a URL to your SVG image. We need to reproduce the problem before we can reproduce it.

Your file converted without any problems. We're using ImageMagick 6.5.7-4 and convert -list format returns:

• SVG SVG rw+ Scalable Vector Graphics (RSVG 2.26.0)

[Binome]

I tried to convert to .eps, .ps, .gif, .jpg and .png but I get black boxes anyway.
A friend is converting well on Debian with version 6.5.5-3, I have 6.5.1-0 (it's the distribution version and I got errors when trying to install from source and converting the .rpm to .deb binaries).

[Binome]

If I try 'display arch-dwt-hard.svg' I get the black boxes. 'gimp arch-dwt-hard.svg' shows the colored boxes.
So I suppose this version of ImageMagick is not able to handle that...

[magick]

We have confirmed ImageMagick displays your images properly. We suspect your version of ImageMagick does not include the RSVG delegate library. Type

• identify -list configure

Does it mention RSVG? If not, download and install the librsvg2 and librsvg2 development libraries and then reconfigure / reinstall ImageMagick.

[Binome]

• identify -list configure

was not mentioning RSVG.
The package librsvg2-2 was already installed but not the librsvg2-dev one so I installed it. Then I removed and reinstalled ImageMagick but

Code: Select all

identify -list configure

still didn't mention RSVG and I still wasn't able to show the colored boxes using

Code: Select all

display arch-dwt-hard.svg

Another idea?

When you configure ImageMagick, make sure it lists support for the RSVG delegate library. If not, check config.log and determine why RSVG failed to validate. Fix the problem and reconfigure ImageMagick until it validates the RSVG delegate library. Now rebuild / reinstall.

[Binome]

OK, I start from the sources of 6.5.7-4. The './configure' goes well, it tells me it's ok for rsvg, the 'make' and 'make install' seem ok too. But when I try to run the 'display' command (or any other) there's an error:

• display: symbol lookup error: display: undefined symbol: MagickCommandGenesis

What should I do now?

[magick]

It looks like the display program is new and it is dynamically linking to a older version of the ImageMagick library. Delete all versions of ImageMagick on your system and then reinstall. Check the dynamic linking with the ldd command (e.g. ldd /usr/local/bin/display). Try running the display program again and see if that fixes the problem.

• display

is still giving the same error.

[magick]

Try ldd on the svg.so coder module:

• ldd /usr/local//lib/ImageMagick-6.5.7/modules-Q16//coders//svg.so

We get

• librsvg-2.so.2 => /usr/lib64/librsvg-2.so.2 (0x00007f35c7cde000)

If you do not see a dependency for RSVG-2, see config.log for the reason why.

[Binome]

Yes, I get this line.

[magick]

Your ldd of the display program returns /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so.2. Is libMagickCore also installed in /usr/local/lib? Otherwise add -debug configure all to your command line to see where ImageMagick is picking up svg.so. If it picks up the version that includes support for RSVG, we can see no reason why the conversion does not work. It certainly works for us.
